My son loves his time at Jiu Jitsu! As parents we appreciate that they teach lessons beyond athletics - being a good person, being healthy, and being a good student. The coaches are super patient and great with kids! The classes are balanced well between content/learning and fun games so the kids don’t lose interest. The pricing is very affordable and the membership structure is perfect for busy families whose schedules change weekly. Overall Jiu Jitsu has been a really positive experience for our son—thank you!

I went routinely for several months, I liked going. It’s good vibes and everyone is super helpful. The coaches are very good at giving instructions, kind, and encouraging. You won’t be made to feel like an outsider and eventually have fun training with everyone. There’s so much you’ll learn about BJJ techniques and history. Very fun, definitely worth the visit! 🥋 I still appreciate having gone. I hope you go!

My son and I have been training at Underground for over two and a half years now; we both enjoy it a lot and have a great time in class. John is a great instructor and is really good at simplifying the moves and explaining them well in a way you can easily understand the movements and the reasons why we do them the way we do. An amazing self defense school. My son has grown so confident and opened up more socially over the last few years and I feel that training here has really helped with that. Friendly people that help each other get better every class, great atmosphere. I highly recommend.

I cannot say enough good things about John and the studio! They have always been extremely welcoming and kind people, and always have the students best interests at heart. My son has always been very interested in martial arts, and meeting John has only amplified that interest and love for it ten fold! The dedication that the studio shows to its teachings and attitude is unparalleled in the area. If you are looking at getting into Jiu Jitsu I HIGHLY recommend visiting Underground Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, you will not be disappointed.

I’ve been attending the jiu-jitsu classes here, and I couldn't be happier with my experience. The training environment is incredibly welcoming and supportive, making it perfect for beginners and advanced practitioners. Coach Winona is exceptional. She has a knack for breaking down complex techniques into easy-to-understand steps, and her attention to detail ensures that you progress at your own pace. Coach John is equally impressive. He brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to each class, offering insightful tips and corrections that have significant improvements. His motivational approach keeps everyone engaged and striving for their best. Plus, he is super funny! 😄 This jiu-jitsu school provides top-notch training, a friendly community, and coaches who genuinely care about your development. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to start or advance their jiu-jitsu journey!
